To clean Earthenware, pour in hot water and gently scrub it with a soft brush or sponge. In some cases, you might be left with some stubborn bits that get left behind, to get rid of them just throw in some salt or baking soda and clean it with a brush or a sponge.
In the worst-case scenario, if you are still left with stains, pour some hot water and add 2-3 tablespoon of baking soda to it and let it overnight, next morning the food remains will come off easily.
